The x/y variables and projection from other level2 products look like below: float y(y=5424); :scale_factor = -5.6E-5f; // float :add_offset = 0.151844f; // float :units = "rad"; :axis = "Y"; :long_name = "GOES fixed grid projection y-coordinate"; :standard_name = "projection_y_coordinate"; :_CoordinateAxisType = "GeoY"; float x(x=5424); :scale_factor = 5.6E-5f; // float :add_offset = -0.151844f; // float :units = "rad"; :axis = "X"; :long_name = "GOES fixed grid projection x-coordinate"; :standard_name = "projection_x_coordinate"; :_CoordinateAxisType = "GeoX"; int goes_imager_projection; :long_name = "GOES-R ABI fixed grid projection"; :grid_mapping_name = "geostationary"; :perspective_point_height = 3.5786023E7; // double :semi_major_axis = 6378137.0; // double :semi_minor_axis = 6356752.31414; // double :inverse_flattening = 298.2572221; // double :latitude_of_projection_origin = 0.0; // double :longitude_of_projection_origin = -137.0; // double :sweep_angle_axis = "x"; :_CoordinateTransformType = "Projection"; :_CoordinateAxisTypes = "GeoX GeoY"; Also, we need a time dimension to do the aggregation. If you can find out more information on coordinates and projection of volcano products, we can use ncml to modify the dataset and create displays in the IDV. I will ask my colleague to see if any help I can get. By the way, these level 2 products are supported in the IDV: https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/satellite/goes/west/products/catalog.html and some of them are being modified to make those files CF-compliant. And, more level2 products are available on our added server.
